A rare alignment of five dwarf galaxies, positioned around 117 million light-years away, has been discovered by astronomers. This grouping, which challenges existing models of galaxy formation, shows active star formation despite their small sizes. The galaxies, labelled D1 to D5, exhibit unique characteristics, including shared rotational motion and gravitational int…A rare alignment of five dwarf galaxies, positioned around 117 million light-years away, has been discovered by astronomers.
